User blog:PegasusSeiya351/How I discovered Zenki!

Greetings everyone! I'm gonna tell you how I discovered one of my all-time favorite Anime/Manga series, Zenki!



In the spring of 2015, I was watching random Anime underwater fight scenes; when I stumbled upon a related video that was recommended for me... for some reason. I clicked the link, and the video was a compilation of clips from episode 38 of Zenki; of Miss Kazue diving for scientific research... for some reason. I saw the series title in the comments section, and I looked it up. I thought "Hmm, this looks awesome, but I think I'll watch it later." (I discover a lot of stuff this way, random discovery via the Internet.) A couple months later, I remembered discovering it, and I wanted to do more research. At the time, I couldn't remember its name; but I did remember it was from the 90's, and that the title had 5 letters, one syllable, and a demon-like main character. I started looking through Wikipedia's 90's Anime lists, and I rediscovered Zenki! I soon found the first theme song (It's the only theme song for the North American releases, & the dub is uncut.), and I began listening to it more and more, and I watched the first episode in early to mid August 2015. I watched more episodes when I got back from visiting my relatives in the northern U.S. I completed the 1st half of the series by the end of the year, and I completed the 2nd half in early to mid August 2016. Yes, It took me exactly one year to complete this series, as I occasionally took breaks from it to watch other shows. I'll be making another journal entry on my overall thoughts on this series.
